    He prides himself in it, and I've learnt to respect that. If I was going to keep one cretin as a pet, and send the rest off to the pound, I'd definitely keep SB.

      As a post-menopausal woman, I think you're an idiot.

        It's some new contrived "gender-neutral" pronoun, meant to represent "he or she"

        Usually just saying "they" or "them" is quite sufficient.

            I only hope he never gets into a situation where he works with women or has any responsibility in promoting or managing them.

              Anything he touches is bound to be a disaster

                I'd say you're pretty safe there.

                    I'm certainly not saying a way a woman dresses should invite sexual harassment but I've just come in today and one lady in herlate 20's early 30's is here with knee high high heel boots, tight leggings and a white top that clearly shows her bra. IMO that's just not acceptable and most certainly turns heads and invites discussion amongst the guys. It's business casual here with open neck shirts and trousers, most wear a suit but take the jacket off. People in jeans are sometimes pulled to one side on the guys but rarely the ladies. Most male managers wouldn't dare point it out although they should.

                    As I say what you wear shouldn't be a reason to be harassed IMO but honestly, some of the ladies really need to think what is and isn't acceptable at work.

                      Sorry about that.
